    Packers not quite hideous

    King,

    The Packers certainly aren't a good team, but they aren't really hideous. How many 1-5 teams have ever had greter Points For than Points Against (144 vs. 118). Of course that's due largely to the 52-3 blow out of the Saints. But even if you just look at their losses, 4 of the 5 were by a field goal or less ( the other was by two touchdowns). With a little luck the Packers could be 3-3 or 4-2.

    Anyway, the Packers are definitely light on talent this year, but I have been surprised by how well they have played, and how bad their record is.
